A Bookish Birthday

  • by

One of my very good friends is an avid (and very fast) reader. She easily averages more books a week than I do in a month, so the September Simon Says Card Kit was a perfect match for her birthday card. It’s all about books and reading.

Here’s my first take with this stamp set.

The patterned papers are all from October Afternoon’s “Public Library” line. I stamped a shelf for the books and plant, and found a perfect sentiment in Papertrey Ink’s “All Booked Up” set.  I love the inside sentiment from “All Booked Up” as well.

Virginia’s View has a new challenge up for this month using patterned paper. It’s a perfect challenge for getting to some of those beautiful patterned papers in kits and my 6X6 paper pad collection.

I’m also in under the wire for Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes.
